Default Updated PORSCHE Crest on recent delivered cars?

Anyone take note if the new 2024 992’s are wearing the updated PORSCHE crest on the front bonnet?

Easy ways to spot the updated crest include:

1. smooth surface in the bronze areas
2. honeycomb texture in the red areas
3. Stuttgart printed in black

For the 992 it is allegedly not coming until the dot two. The new Panamera will be the first model to receive it.

My 2024 Targa 4 S still has the old crest on it!

The horse looks so much nicer, and it proudly states Stuttgart-makes my 2023 look like a piece of crap.

Finally a legitimate reason to get the 992.2!

I can't tell if that's sarcasm or hyperbole.

You really have me thinking on that one. I was going to say sarcasm but upon further introspection my answer is:

Neither-it is how I really feel with every fiber of my body- (now that would be hyperbole)

The new is far better. Should have been this way from the go.

This is certainly a very easy swap for anyone interested in doing so, but obviously it would require us learning the part number for the new crest. I do not think that is going to happen until we score a VIN to the latest Panamera.

Kinda surprised they approved the old design without being able to read Stuttgart

I might be in for a quick crest swap.

I like the texture on the red portions better in the old. Looks more like leather vs the fake honeycomb-ish pattern on the new. Otherwise I like every other bit of the new one more. Not enough to care to swap but I think its a nice little refresh. Having no texture behind the PORSCHE lettering looks great.

Like them both. To each his own. Nice to have options

Really like the new one. Well thought out, and the honeycomb adds a modern “techie” touch.

Wouldn’t swap though.

Most people can’t tell generations of 911s apart, forget about he badge!
